- International Protection, Asylum and Migration: Motion (Resumed) (19 Jun 2024)
Seán Ó Fearghaíl: Deputy MacSharry's audience is a bit depleted and he was ready to rise to the task of a full house. Could those leaving please clear the House quietly?
- International Protection, Asylum and Migration: Motion (Resumed) (19 Jun 2024)
Marc MacSharry: I thank the Government for facilitating this time. Whenever the vote is, I will be back to vote against the pact or our opting in at this time. As other Members have said, we are putting the cart before the horse. Some of us are old enough to remember the Amsterdam treaty in 1998, which we voted for, and our two outings on Lisbon in 2008 and 2009. It is worth noting that we looked for...

Question declared carried.

Mattie McGrath: I have been here all evening and have annoyed the clerks by asking how many more speakers there are. Why are they not on the list? We are always told our names have to be on the list to speak. It looks like a charade, walks like a charade and is a charade. Nothing short of it.

Seán Ó Fearghaíl: People come up to me constantly and ask me if they can get in. I do everything I can to facilitate that.

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire: For the benefit of people watching in, what is due to happen, without any change, is that everyone who has indicated and is present will have spoken within the allocated time, a vote would have proceeded and everyone who had sought time would have had the opportunity to speak. I am quite relaxed about this. I believe what might be expected has been discussed outside of the Chamber to some...

Seán Ó Fearghaíl: It would be without precedent. I have never heard of a situation in which Members came in and made a decision but wanted to know the names of the people who potentially wanted to speak if the time was allocated. That has never happened and it is not going to happen now.

Michael Healy-Rae: I think I am making a valid point of order; the Ceann Comhairle can tell me whether he will allow it. What is going on here this evening with the deferral of the vote - this is the place where we hear all of the stories - is that the Government is not happy that it has enough numbers this evening and wants to have a better vote next week. Can the Whip confirm, through the Chair, whether...

Seán Ó Fearghaíl: I am not going to allow the Whip to respond to that because that is not a question that bears answering. The reality is that we are scheduled to go on after this to votable business. I presume everybody who should have people here to vote are going to be here to vote. Are you calling a vote on this?
- Gnó na Dála - Business of Dáil (19 Jun 2024)
Michael Healy-Rae: Yes.

Bernard Durkan: Before you proceed, I have indicated a wish to speak on this important subject. Several other of my colleagues have not spoken and could not be here on time, but will be here to speak on the subject. I welcome the proposal put forward by the Government Whip.

James Lawless: This is what I alluded to in my speech a few minutes ago. I am a bit like Deputy Ó Laoghaire; I am indifferent and neutral on this. If the Chief Whip says there should be more time afforded to the debate, I am all for that. At committee, we afforded more time. The time petered out and Deputies did not offer to contribute, so naturally the debate ran to a close. I want to be clear on...

James Lawless: They seem to be projecting their own conspiracies onto that and saying there is some ulterior motive. That is not appropriate.
